Greetings all! The weather is getting warmer, the garments are getting shorter, and it stays lighter later....what it all means is that the Annual Trip to the Beaches of Rock and Long is around the corner.
Date: Friday, June 29
Meeting Place (5:30): Penn Station 8th Avenue Line Express platform @ Train Operator's Position (head-end)
Meeting Place (6:00): Jay Street/Boro Hall Queens-bound A train platform @ Train Operator's Position (head-end)
Intinerary: We will ride the first Far Rockaway-bound consist of R-32/38 cars to arrive before 6:15. Will ride out to the last stop, Far Rockaway/Mott Ave. Transfer to the N33 bus and ride to the last stop which puts us in Long Beach. Walk two blocks to the Sui Szechuan Resturant on Park Ave (main boulevard, across from Waldbaum's supermarket and mall). Will dine there and later walk the boardwalk (weather permitting). Participants have the option of returning via N33 bus > Far Rockaway A train or taking LIRR citybound. Those that live on LI may opt for local Nassau County bus service to points north and east.
Hope to see you there!
